According to an official announcement from Binance, the cryptocurrency exchange has completed the integration of Lista (LISTA) on the Ethereum network, specifically the ERC20 standard. As a result, deposit services for Lista are now open to users. Binance also noted that once it has received a sufficient amount of deposits, it will open withdrawal services for the token. The exchange said it will not issue a further announcement when withdrawals go live. The news was first reported by Odaily, a crypto-focused news outlet.

The coming week carries a dense schedule for crypto markets and adjacent sectors. Circle, SpaceX, Hut 8, and American Bitcoin are all set to release quarterly results, while token unlocks for Succinct (PROVE), Ethena (ENA), and Hyperliquid (HYPE) are also on the calendar. At the same time, several products and services are approaching end-of-life milestones, including DeFi dashboard Zapper, crypto wallet Ctrl Wallet, and Polygon liquid staking token MaticX. Exchanges are making changes as well: Binance will stop supporting the Sophon mainnet and migrate SOPH to Ethereum on a 1:1 basis, and Coinbase plans to suspend trading in IDEX, LRC, OMNI, PIRATE, and FIS. The week also includes Polymarket’s shift to TWAP-based settlement for crypto up/down markets, a planned compensation update from AFX Trade after its bridge exploit, and an upcoming XRP Ledger software release that restores revised features previously removed over security flaws. Macro data are also due, with the U.S. set to publish July unemployment, nonfarm payrolls, and wage figures on Aug. 7.

SlowMist’s security team said an unverified contract was exploited after exposing an unrestricted low-level call tied to selector 0x42be3129, resulting in the theft of about 16.6 WETH. The team said the contract lacked both access control and validation of target data, leaving a path for abuse. According to SlowMist, the attacker took advantage of an existing ERC20 allowance granted to the contract and bypassed owner checks to carry out unauthorized transferFrom operations. The incident highlights a contract-level flaw identified in monitoring rather than a broader protocol issue, based on the details provided in the alert.

SlowMist’s security team issued an alert over an exploit tied to an unverified smart contract, saying a selector identified as 0x42be3129 exposed an unrestricted low-level call vulnerability. According to the alert, the contract lacked both access control and validation of target data, a combination that allowed the attack to go through. SlowMist said the incident resulted in the loss of about 16.6 WETH. The firm added that the attacker took advantage of existing ERC20 token allowances associated with the contract. By using those pre-existing approvals, the attacker was able to bypass owner checks and carry out unauthorized transferFrom operations. The warning, first carried by ChainCatcher, focused on the technical cause of the exploit and the mechanism used to move the funds rather than disclosing additional project details.

Foresight published an overview of five infrastructure technologies it sees as central to Web3’s shift from a single-chain niche to multi-chain adoption at scale. The piece focuses on Layer2 scaling, zero-knowledge proofs, modular blockchains, cross-chain interoperability and decentralized storage. According to the article, Layer2 has become the main answer to congestion and high fees on Ethereum and other major chains, with Optimistic Rollup and ZK-Rollup representing the two dominant paths. It also highlights data availability as a core security consideration for Layer2 systems. On zero-knowledge technology, Foresight describes ZK as a base cryptographic tool for privacy and efficient verification, with use cases spanning ZK-Rollup, ZK-EVM, privacy payments, on-chain identity and secure cross-chain interaction. The article also argues that modular blockchains are changing public-chain design by separating consensus, execution, settlement and data layers into independent modules. In parallel, cross-chain messaging protocols and unified asset standards are being used to address fragmentation across multiple chains, while IPFS, Filecoin and Arweave are presented as key pieces of decentralized storage infrastructure for NFT metadata, AI datasets and on-chain archives. Foresight’s conclusion is that these five technologies together support Web3’s path toward large-scale commercial deployment.

Robinhood reported the strongest quarter in its history, posting $1.31 billion in net revenue, $573 million in net income, diluted EPS of $0.62, and total platform assets of $369 billion. One of the standout figures came from its prediction market business, where event contracts generated $156 million in revenue, topping both crypto and equities for the first time. CEO Vlad Tenev also highlighted Robinhood Chain, saying its DEXs have processed more than $12 billion in volume, the network reached 100 million transactions at record speed, and TVL stands around $325 million. Outside the company, crypto markets were largely flat after the FOMC, with BTC at $64.8K, while SEC Chair Paul Atkins said the agency is prepared to draft crypto market rules on its own if the CLARITY Act does not move forward. The broader update also covered ETF flows, Coinbase ahead of earnings, MoonPay’s PayBox launch, Binance US’s plan to seek DCM status, and activity across meme coins, DeFi protocols, and NFTs.

A group of BitMart users with large balances has issued a public complaint, saying 27 users had registered cases by July 30 with more than $3.7 million in assets unable to be withdrawn. According to an X post by user @MINGLIbtc, the amount is still rising and the largest single case involves 700,000 USDT. Several users said they were drawn in by yield products tied to stablecoins including USDG and PYUSD. After completing KYC, redeeming those products, and submitting withdrawal requests as instructed by the platform, they found exit channels shutting down one after another. Users said USDG withdrawals on both ERC20 and Solana were marked suspended, while the USDG/USDT and PYUSD/USDT pairs could not trade normally, leaving them unable to withdraw directly or swap into USDT before withdrawing. They also said large withdrawals have remained pending for long periods, while only scattered small withdrawals of about 100 USDT have been released and 24-hour withdrawal limits were sharply reduced. The complaint challenges BitMart’s July 26 statement that it would gradually cease operations while keeping withdrawals open, and demands a response within 24 hours.

Anthropic said an unreleased version of its flagship model, Claude Mythos Preview, discovered two previously unknown attacks on cryptographic algorithms, including one targeting HAWK, a post-quantum digital signature system that had advanced to the third round of the U.S. NIST competition. According to the report, the attack cuts the cost of stealing HAWK’s smallest key from 2^64 operations to 2^38, or about 67 million times less work. Anthropic said fixing the issue would roughly double key sizes, weakening one of HAWK’s main selling points: compact keys and fast signing. The report also stressed that HAWK has never been deployed and that Bitcoin still uses ECDSA, so no live crypto system was broken by the finding. Even so, the development matters because a broad push toward quantum-resistant crypto infrastructure assumes that the replacement schemes are themselves secure. The newsletter also covered a range of market and policy developments, including gains in BTC and ETH ahead of the FOMC, public backing for the CLARITY Act from BlackRock, Fidelity, Franklin Templeton, Goldman Sachs, and SoFi, fresh ETF flow data, Zcash’s Ironwood activation, and a burst of meme coin trading activity led by PIPEDOG on Robinhood chain.
